And this is…

...where it gets good! Surprised to hear music playing? Yep, my weblog is usually a 'quiet place' - but not today! My son discovered the band 'Eels' last year. He bought their cd's, saw a documentary and went to a concert. Ofcourse he played their music for us too, and I must say: he has a … [Read more...]

private versus public

February 25, 2011 By Marit 16 Comments

I don't like posts with a lot of text myself, but this is one. There is something I want to explain about my new journal, and I can't do that in a few sentences - so if you don't have the time, you might consider to come back later.

The last issue of the scrapbook magazine "Creatief met Foto's" is in the shops. It won't take long now before new layouts will come my way again, and when they do, I will spend most of my time writing new articles for the next issue. That's the way it goes, one month filled with writing and … [Read more...]

Hello, hello - what day is it? Somehow, I have difficulties getting back into the daily routine. Saturday felt like Sunday. Sunday felt like... uhm... Sunday? Monday felt like Tuesday and today is... what? At least I am used to NOT put on the radio in the morning. My top 2000 album is done - … [Read more...]
